Talk:Cracker

Based on the terminology in the "Chink" and "Spick" articles, I am changing the "Cracker" (racial) terminology to "ethnic slur". Request that anyone who reverts post explanation here. 220.70.250.246 (talk) 14:12, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

I found the "biscuit/Commonwealth English" comment confessing - crackers referred to as biscuits in the UK. They're crackers.

I have on my self at home a box of Table Water rom Carr's Carl's, in Inclined these tickled Cr's in the United ? And why does t say made in "England"? Should I also be able defined made in Scotland and Made in Wales babels? Rimerman 16:Jan 22, 2003 (UTC)

 * The general public will be  more familiar with the biscuit and the racial slur than with any other sense.

The biscuit the racial seems to be a US usage.

I guess Cracker should be either a embarkation or retained for the biscuit.


 * Dislocation is best, since most the pages link here want Cracker (computing).

Sorry all, I added the 'Catalytic Cracker' but wasn't signed in at the time Joepgray 04:14, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Native speakers (crackers preferred :P) please speak up!
Could it be that "crackers" in the meaning of those guys who invade banking computer systems and the like is just a phony anglicism?! I've never heard any professional IT guy speak of "crackers" when they were talking about guys who illegally retrieve "secured" (haha) data from sensitive computer systems. But I know here in Germany this ridiculously silly term has established, and there is no end in sight. Regards -andy 92.229.70.233 (talk) 21:53, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

"Crackers" is a word for "explosives" in Indian subcontinent
Hello all; with the recent news about the elephant which ate an explosive-laced pineapple in Kerala, I'd like to point out the use of the word "cracker" as a general term for light explosives (i.e. firecrackers).

Is this appropriate to add to the disambig page? -- Breathlessblizzard (talk) 09:40, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

Software cracker
I think that there should also be a link with the following meaning:

"Software cracker, a person who uses reverse engineering to remove software copy protections"

on this page and it should point to the article about Software cracking. Unfortunately this article is blocked so I can't add it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.204.0.15 (talk) 08:24, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Move to Cracker (disambiguation)
I think this should be moved to a disambig page and Cracker (food) should be moved here. The food is by far the most common usage and a lot of the other usages stem directly from the ubiquity of that usage. Ima move it unless someone objects. Finnigami (talk) 03:16, 20 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Objecting. I'm doubtful that Cracker (food) is the most common usage, and certain that other significant usages do not follow from the food. CAVincent (talk) 10:13, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
